With almost 30 years of D.J. experience Frank Williams encompasses everything that is soulful. From house music to funk, disco to electro, Frank’s sets are generally a collage of different types of electronic genre. His residencies at System Sound Bar, NASA and Charlie’s (Government), along with playing at events such as Garage 416, Solid Garage, Milk and Poundhouse, have allowed him to play alongside such artists as Little Louie Vega, Alton Miller, Roy Davis Jr., Mark Farina, Glenn Underground and Mike Clark to name a few. Moreover, his extraordinary skills have seen him headline numerous events thought the world including; Hungary, France, Spain, Gibraltar, USA and Canada. 
When asked where he draws his inspiration Frank is quick to point out his Janito roots. Originally form Gibraltar, a British Commonwealth located  in the southern coast of Spain; Frank was predominantly exposed to music heavily influenced by Flamenco, Salsa and the Balearic melodies that were filtering out of Ibiza. His exposure to funk, disco and electro came years later when Toronto, Canada became his new home in 1979.
Frank was exposed early to the infectious sounds of SOS Band, Parliament, George Clinton, Chaka Khan and Maze. These hip-churning grooves eventually inspired Frank to begin his collection of roller jams and old school funk. It’s no wonder the progression into house music was a logical one. House music draws much of its inspiration from the early warehouse days, a sanctuary for everything that didn’t surface to the mainstream; this is a reflection of what you might expect in a Frank Williams DJ set.
Franks current accolades include coaching Brandan Duke, aka Dextrous One. Brandan is the current Guiness World Record youngest professional Dj. Additionally, Frank teaches Ableton Live master courses at MusicBoxx Toronto, Ontario.

umbriel rising is the electronic music project of musician/producer/engineer martin brown. A multi-instrumentalist with many influences, who has played live solo and in bands and covered just about every genre of music since first acquiring music and production skills in the late 1980s.

Since he started producing at 18, and having switched over from being an ex-metal drummer, dubstep has always been the genre of EDM that gives Ballista a sufficing head bang. After hearing his first dub tunes like "Swagga" and "Retreat," he knew dubstep was the genre that could truly be heavy like metal but in it's own element, and thrill the auditory senses. He became infatuated with the music, and before even owning a set of tables he was head over heels into music production, conjuring up demons within his computer. Ballista has also had the honor of sharing the stage with acts such as KOAN Sound, Dubsidia, Helicopter Showdown, Vaski, Mark Instinct, Bar 9, Chaosphere, AC Slater, Bryx and many other incredible DJs that helped put him on the map. After being in the scene for as little as two years "Ransom" was released on Monkey Dub Recording in December 2010, and a few months after that followed his debut EP "Boombox Bangers Volume I." which was also released on Monkey Dub Recording. After that, a free EP was put out by himself titled "Headrockers" which includes his first rap remix of Tech N9ne's "Big Bad Wolf" and is up for free download on soundcloud. With another EP almost done for Bassbong Records and remixes in the works, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for upcoming releases! See you all at the next show!
